Stampin' Up! Christmas Tidings Christmas Card

 Hey!  Want to see a fun card that I made during a live with my buddy and sideline, Andrea recently?  We were following a sketch and I might have derailed a bit but I am so in LOVE with the results!  Big shout out to Leah for designing the sketch! 

Using the Christmas Tidings Embossing Folder, I inked it up using the Mossy Meadow ink pad.  Then with a piece of Basic White cardstock in place, I ran it through my Big Shot.  This allowed the ink to transfer to the cardstock.  I think my plates are a bit warped because not all of the card stock got saturated in the same way but I am so in love with the oopsie that I hope to be able to do this again!  

This was adhered to a Real Red cardbase with Stampin' Seal.  Next I fussy cut a couple of images for the front from the Beary Christmas cardstock using Stampin' Dimensionals.  The sentiment is from Trucking Along stamped with Real Red onto a scrap of Basic White cardstock.  I just trimmed it down and popped it up also.  I finished it off using some Rhinestone Basic Jewels.

Because I love a finished inside, I stamped a sentiment from the Brightest Glow and added another fussy cut image for interest.

I love how it turned out! Oh, and don't be worried about the folder clean up.  I just ran it under cold water and the ink ran right off.  No staining either.

Real Red cardbase 5 1/2 x 8 1/2

Stampin' Up! Splendid Autumn Sympathy Card

Image
Today's card was inspired by a sketch seen on facebook from an American Demonstrator.  I was intrigued by the cool way to use some of our beautiful designer series paper and the best part is, you don't need a huge piece! I am attending a Stampin' Up! event this weekend and we were asked to bring a few projects to share and this is one of my projects. Fall isn't officially here yet, but once school starts up and the leaves start to fall off the trees, it's pretty close.  The Splendid Autumn designer series paper is gorgeous, the beautiful rich colours are simply stunning.   The cardbase and matte layer are Wild Wheat and the cardstock that the dsp is mounted on is Crushed Curry.  Simply cut the pieces and adhere together and then adhere to the card front.  I stamped using Memento onto a strip of Basic White cardstock which was then mounted on to another piece of Crushed Curry.  This was then popped up using Stampin' Dimensionals after the length of 2023...

Stampin' Up! Nests of Winter Christmas Card

Image
Good day folks!  I am here with another card created for my recent Stampin' Up! gathering this past weekend.  We had a day long activity where we focused on building up our Stampin' Up! business, watched several Atlantic Demos create some beautiful projects and then participated in a show box swap.  This was my shoe box swap offering. I have used this fancy fold layout several times and thought it was the perfect opportunity to showcase some of the beautiful Nests of Winter dsp in the latest mini catalogue! My cardbase is Grey Granite which was cut and scored, the die cut square behind the image and the strip to hold the card together are all Gray Granite too.  The dsp is from Nests of Winter and they are adhered to the front and the inside of the cardbase.  There is a small piece of Basic White for the insert and fits beside the piece of dsp.  The strip of Gray Granite,  is scored is secured next.  Starting at the far left edge of the card front,...
